Day 3 in Napa in the books! Running a day behind on notes...Napa time runs slow AND fast!

Solid. Merlot and CF blend. It’s very floral with loads of potpourri, tobacco, tar and red fruit. High acidity and light on the palate. Fun.

A touch more flamboyant than the 2014 (No. 1), this No. 2 vintage is still all about the red fruit. Less of the Cabernet Franc coming through on the nose, but it seemed to me to be more intense with some floral tickling around the edges. This would be amazing with a steak.
